Welcome Bags
Welcome bags are a great project/donation for groups that would like to include young volunteers, or large corporate groups looking to get the whole office involved. Welcome bags are always accepted and appreciated! You can prepare 1-200 welcome bags at a time. Assemble welcome bags off site and choose the contents for our families. Bags can be either disposable or reusable. All contents must be new, individually wrapped, unexpired and factory sealed/prepackaged.
